Well, it’s no wonder you’re here. Because I know the struggle of finding good free RPG mobile games among these hundreds of thousands of cheap games.

Finding a decent mobile RPGs is like looking for a needle in a haystack. But it doesn’t have to be.

In this list, I will give you a selection of mobile RPGs that I found to be quite impressive. And yes, these games are free!

Have a look and see if you’ve played any of these games.

#1 Genshin Impact

• Platform: Android, iOS

Genshin Impact was a delightful surprise that came out in 2020. It was released across all platforms, including mobile, PC, and consoles. And it went on to make millions on mobile platforms alone.

This game is not only free-to-play but it packs loads of fun-filled content you can play without having to spend any money. Even the in-game currency for buying different characters can be earned by doing events and challenges.

Genshin Impact is a must-play for all RPG fans. Check out my guide for a few tips.

#2 Honkai Star Rail

• Platform: Android, iOS

Honkai Star Rail is the latest game from Hoyoverse, the same developer behind Genshin Impact. This developer seems to make all the right moves to churn out billion-dollar games because this new one was just as successful as Genshin Impact.

Honkai Star Rail is another anime-style RPG where you get to play with a lot of characters, progress through a good story, and level up characters. One thing that made me turn away from the game is its combat system, which features turn-based combat.

While I’ve learned to enjoy turn-based combat, it’s not the most fun to play on mobile. Maybe you’ll learn to love it. So give it a try.

#3 Albion Online

• Platform: Android, iOS

Albion Online is actually an MMO but it also has lots of cool RPG elements, including character progression, in-game economy, and dungeons that make it a great game to play even as a solo player.

I’ve had tons of fun playing this game on my PC and whenever I’m on the go I would play it on my phone. It has cross-progression so you can always continue your game on whichever platform you play on.

It can be a bit overwhelming when you first start the game but keep going. It gets better!

#4 Undecember

• Platform: Android, iOS, PC

Undecember is an ARPG with similar mechanics to games like Diablo and Path of Exile. This game runs really smoothly on mobile and has a PC port as well.

What makes it awesome is that the game supports cross-progression between mobile and PC. This allows you to play the same character on both PC and mobile. I’ve been playing it on PC to do missions and playing it on mobile to grind for resources when I’m away from home.

#5 Black Desert Mobile

• Platform: Android, iOS

Black Desert is one of the most popular MMORPGs available on all platforms, including PC and consoles. The mobile version looks and feel just like a console game. The graphics are really impressive and plays well too. I had some server issues in the beginning but things went back to normal after an update. This game is massive and takes a lot of time to get into it. If you’re fan of MMORPGs, this one will definitely keep you glued to your phone all day long.

#6 Diablo Immortal

• Platform: Android, iOS, PC

While there’s so much backlash surrounding the microtransactions in the game, Diablo Immortal is actually a great ARPG to play on your phone.

If you have some sense of self-control and don’t have a habit of spending tons of money on mobile games, you can definitely play Diablo Immortal and have a ton of fun as a free-to-play player.

Diablo Immortal also has cross-play between PC and mobile. So you can easily play the game on PC and pick up from where you left off on mobile.

#7 V4

• Platform: Android, iOS

V4 is an MMORPG with a massive open world and fun gameplay. It’s quite similar to Black Desert as it also comes from a Korean-based developer.

Unlike Black Desert, V4 features cross-platform gameplay. This means you can play the game on PC and continue your missions on your phone while you’re on-the-go.

The game lets you choose from 6 classes and it offers lots of different content for enjoying the game the way you want.

#8 Dawn of Isles

• Platform: Android, iOS

The most fun I’ve had playing an RPG on mobile was with Dawn of Isles. This game is developed by a Japanese company and it has very pretty graphics and the gameplay is very well optimized for mobile too. This is another MMORPG. The game has dungeons, boss fights, massive areas to explore and even has farming and resource grinding as well. Definitely worth a try, especially if you’re a fan of JRPGs.

#9 Evil Lands

• Platform: Android, iOS

Evil Lands is another console-quality RPG. This game actually reminded me of Skyrim. The game is really nicely developed and worth trying out. It also features multiplayer and PVP game modes.

#10 Arcane Quest Legends

• Platform: Android, iOS

Arcane Quest is one of the best looking RPGs on mobile. This game has everything you’d wish for in a mobile ARPG and features great graphics as well. It will take some practice to get used to the controls and the way things work in the game, but it’ll be worth it.

#11 Anima ARPG

• Platform: Android

Anima is an action RPG that will certainly remind you of Diablo 2. The game is not well-polished and it’s only available on Android. However, the game does offer some fun gameplay for fans of ARPGs.

#12 Eternium

• Platform: Android & iOS

Eternium is the true form of RPG on mobile. Think of Skyrim on your smartphone. That’s what Eternium is like. This game also has some great graphics and a complex gameplay system. The game can also be played online in Single Player mode so it’s a great game to take on your long trips or even on camping trips.

#13 Nonstop Knight 2

• Platform: Android, iOS

The sequel to one of the most popular mobile games got a major overhaul and it’s now super fun to play. While the first game was an idle clicker that did all the work for you, Nonstop Knight 2 has lots more RPG elements to you and puts you entirely in control of your hero’s journey. There are lots of loot, skills, weapons to unlock in this game and has a cool co-op gameplay element to it as well.

#14 Mighty Quest For Epic Loot

• Platform: Android, iOS

Ubisoft sure knows how to feed our hunger for loot and grind. Their latest title is all about grinding for loot and leveling up your character in a dungeon-style hack and slack mobile game. I haven’t tried this game yet so it’s too early for me to give my verdict but from the looks of it the game seems fun.

#15 Postknight

• Platform: Android, iOS

If you’re a fan of side-scrolling games and retro games with minimal graphics, this RPG game is for you. Postknight offers simple yet fun gameplay with enough loot and a great story to keep you entertained for hours. The has several awards under its belt and it’s one of the highest rated RPG games on mobile.

#16 Dungeon Hunter 5

• Platform: Android, iOS

Dungeon Hunter 5 got a lot of negative reviews from gamers concerning its pay-to-win microtransactions. However, the game is worth giving a try if you like cool graphics and solid gameplay. It has daily challenges to keep you busy and skill trees and armor to unlock along the way.

#17 Vampire’s Fall: Origins

• Platform: Android, iOS

Vampire’s Fall is a different kind of an RPG game that features a cool 2D open world where you can roam around freely to complete quests and complete missions. This game has turn-based combat, something I’m not a big fan of. But it’s worth checking out if you’re looking for something new to play this weekend.

Did I mention all these games are Free to play? Well, what are you waiting for? Give them a try.
